GMC ENVOY XL 370 2003 Safety Review #10242520
GMC ENVOY XL 370 2003 car safety problem was reported on Sept 15, 2008.GMC ENVOY XL 370 2003, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with STRUCTURE:BODY:HATCHBACK/LIFTGATE . MY WIFE WAS IN THE PROCESS OF CLOSING THE REAR HATCH ON OUR 2003 ENVOY XL (80,000 MILES) AFTER REMOVING SOME ARTICLES FROM THE BACK. SHE HAD MOVED THE DOOR ABOUT 1-2 INCHES DOWNWARD USING THE MOLDED HANDLE ON THE BOTTOM OF THE LIFT GATE TO CLOSE THE DOOR WHEN THE REAR GLASS SHATTERED OVER HER HEAD. LUCKILY SHE WAS NOT INJURED BUT WAS COVERED IN SAFETY GLASS. THE GLASS WAS NOT DAMAGED YESTERDAY WHEN I DROVE THE VEHICLE AND UNLOADED SUITCASES FROM THE REAR. AMBIENT TEMPERATURE WAS ABOUT 70 DEGREES. I DID NOTICE THAT THE REAR BRAKE LIGHT ASSEMBLY IS NOW ANGLED UPWARDS IN THE 'GATE RAISED' POSITION, EVEN AFTER CLOSING THE HATCH. ALSO NOTICED THE TOP, RIGHT SIDE RUBBER GROMMET ON THE STAMPED BRACKET ATTACHING THE GLASS IS VERY WORN, ALLOWING SIGNIFICANT MOVEMENT. I PLAN ON TAKING THE VEHICLE TO A DEALER TO DETERMINE ROOT CAUSE IF POSSIBLE AND WILL HAVE THE GLASS AND ALL TOUCH POINTS REPLACED IF POSSIBLE. I HAVE NO CONFIDENCE THAT THIS WILL NOT HAPPEN AGAIN IF THERE IS A DESIGN INTERFERENCE ISSUE WITH THE GLASS AND THE SURROUNDING COMPONENTS THAT HAPPENS OVER TIME. THERE APPEAR TO BE NUMEROUS CASES ON THE AUTOMOTIVE FORUMS WEBSITE REGARDING ENVOY XL REAR HATCH GLASS SHATTERING FOR NO APPARENT REASON (SOME MULTIPLE OCCURRENCES). I AM SURPRISED MORE COMPLAINTS HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED TO NHTSA OFFICIALLY (ONLY FOUND ONE-10081011). IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY HURT. I HAVE BEEN A BRAKE ENGINEER FOR 10+ YEARS AND TAKE SAFETY VERY SERIOUSLY. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 81000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1GKES16P236. Gmc Envoy Xl 370 2003 problem was reported in PLYMOUTH, MI. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control. VEHICLE SPEED: 0 mph.

My GMC K1500 sometimes starts running rough. It may correct it's self or may continue running rough untill you turn it off for a while then start it up again. Sometimes it may go a month with no problem then the problem may come right back. 1998 GMC Sierra 4x4. 118,000 miles but rebuilt engine installed at 78,000 miles. Drive carefully, slow take offs, 65 to 70 mph on road, but gas mileage is 10 to 11.5 mpg. Changed air filter but no better. Tire pressure is fine. Any suggestions for 2004 GMC Envoy~~~ I have no rt or lft brake lights.(only the bar brake light at the top of the hatch.) I was told that the right one wasn't working. When I went under the seat to check the fuse I noticed that it was the only fuse that was loose, j What can i do to repair the problem i have with my wipers being intermittend thank you. I have a 2007 Yukon Denali XL and my climate control + button for the heat on the drivers side peeled off. Anyone out there having the same issue? It looks like the passengers side is doing the same. Seat belt will not retract on 2004 GMC ENVOY XLT Seat belt will not retract on 2004 GMC ENVOY XLT It is stuck all pulled out and will not roll back up. rear end is splipping 2005 GMC W-5500 has low power starting at 40 mph or going up a hill? 2003 envoy sle 4wd - service 4wd light , parking brake , abs lights on plus hvac fan does not work BUT no codes on any .and also stalls out at idle . what the heck is going on. help! abs activation at low speeds on a 2002 yukon with a 5.3 L engine.
